Reading is Learning...

Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That’s why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones–exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow. 


We believe reading, especially reading together, is a crucial tool for learning. But we also believe there's more to it than conceptual learning. Time spent exploring books fosters moments of connection, understanding, compassion, joy, and love between you and your little one–moments that help all people, but especially the small ones, understand the world today and look forward to exploring it tomorrow.

...and so much more.
